Due to circumstances well within our control (me being ridiculous), things have escalated from there. (Rainbow approves, though, which is what really matters.)

A painting of a black and white cat in a basket hangs on a wall next to a photo of the same cat sitting in the same basket underneath the painting. A gallery card under the painting reads: Isabella Mielczarek (b. 2010) Basket Kitty, 2025. Oil on canvas. Gifted to the gallery by the artist.
A gallery card under the photo reads: Ted Mielczarek (b. 1979) Life Imitates Art, 2025. Photographic print on paper. On loan from the artist's collection.

A black and white cat stands on the edge of a large bathtub. Behind and to its left is a basket. On the wall above the cat hang an oil painting of the cat in the basket, and a framed photo of the cat sitting in the basket underneath the painting.

Update:

A black and white cat sits in a basket next to the edge of a large bathtub. On the wall behind is an oil painting of the same cat in the same basket. To the right of that is a photo of the same cat in the same basket underneath the same painting.
